XXXIV

"Mortal!"--the word crept slowly round the place

As if that wind had breathed it! From no star

Streams that soft lustre on the dreamer's face.

Again a hushing calm! while faint and far

The breeze goes calling onward through the night.

Dear God! what vision chains that wide-strained sight?
